The Boxster gets no respect!

Here is what a guy at work had to say when another guy was thinking about buying a Boxster:
  • Not a real Porsche
  • Never buy an "entry" level car - they are sure to have poor quality and lack performance
  • The engine needs to be dropped (removed) to perform most maintenance and repairs
  • Mid-engine cars overheat - no way to properly cool a car with the engine buried in the center of the car
  • Costs nearly as much as a 911 - so who wouldn't just buy a 911?
  • Boxster engines blow up
This is the kind of crap that gets told from person to person. Amazing.
